1)Remove the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20, and then obtain a new histogram without the outliers. Does the data appear to be normally distributed now? 2)Assuming that the four potential outliers of 0, 0, 8, and 20 are not recording errors, repeat the hypothesis test from part (c) (again setting up the hypothesis test and using either the critical value or p-value approach), and compare your results with that obtained in (c). Did you make a different conclusion? 3)Imagine you know have to make a recommendation/conclusion to the company that hired you: Assuming that the four potential outlies are not recording errors, and looking at the two results above, would you recommend using the first test with the outliers or the second test with the outliers removed? There is no right or wrong answer here, I am interested in what you think and your reasoning.
My original question has already been answered, however, in Step 2 of the Expert Answer I would like clarification on how to compute the critical values manually - without the use of EXCEL, as mentioned in the respnse, so I need to know what formula do I use? Question: Prior to assessment of the outcome, the researchers did a manipulation check. Members of Groups 1 and 2 rated the attractiveness (on a 1 to 9 scale, with 9 being the most attractive) of the person in the photo. They reported that for the attractive photo, M = 7.53; for the unattractive photo, M = 3.20, F(1, 108) = 184.29. Was this difference statistically significant (using a = .05)? Expert Answer Step 1 It is given that the F-test statistic is 184.29, the degrees of freedom for first and second groups are 1 and 108, and the level of significance is 0.05. State the appropriate hypothesis: Null hypothesis: H0 : There is no difference between two groups. Alternative hypothesis: Ha : There is a difference between…

From a sample of 14 observations, an analyst calculates a t-statistic to test a hypothesis that the population mean is equal to zero. If the analyst chooses a 5% significance level, the appropriate critical value is: A. less than 1.80. B. greater than 2.16. C. between 1.80 and 2.16.
An investigator hypothesizes that the improvement rate associated with a placebo is P1 = 0.45, and that the improvement rate associated with an active drug is P2 = 0.65. The plan is to perform a two-tailed test. Use SAS to complete each problem below. (a) If a significance level 0.01 and a power of 0.95 are desired, how large a sample per treatment must he study? (b) How large must the sample size be if the significance level is relaxed to 0.05 and the power to 0.85? (c) For this study, suppose that you have funds to recruit 130 patients per group. What is the power for a 5% level test for this sample size? First do the computation by hand and then use SAS to confirm.
A veterinarian is interested in researching the proportion of men and women cat owners and believes that the proportion of men cat owners is significantly different than the proportion of women cat owners. The veterinarian decides to obtain two independent samples of men and women cat owners and finds from one sample of 80 men, 30% owned cats. In the second sample of 60 women, 55% owned cats. Test the veterinarian's belief at the α=0.05α=0.05 significance level. Preliminary: Is it safe to assume that nmen≤5%nmen≤5% of all men and nwomen≤5%nwomen≤5% of all women?

At the 0.05 level of significance, the data provides insufficient evidence to conclude that the population proportion of male military doctors is less than the population proportion of male civilian doctors. b. At the 0.05 level of significance, the data provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the population proportion of male military doctors is more than the population proportion of male civilian doctors. c.

Suppose we take a sample of 2,500 blood donors from a population for which 50% (0.5) have type O+ blood. (a) Into what range of possible values should the sample proportion fall 95% of the time, according to the Empirical Rule? to (b) If the sample included only 625 donors instead of 2,500, would the range of possible sample proportions be wider, more narrow, or the same as with a sample of 2,500 donors? Explain your answer, and explain why it makes intuitive sense. The range would be with 625 donors compared to a sample of 2,500 donors since the standard deviation of the sampling distribution would be . This makes intuitive sense because if fewer donors are included in the sample, the proportion will be reliable as an estimate of the proportion.
